Minnesota had the same chicken law
that Wisconsin has-that it is unlawful
to shoot prairie chickens until the first
of September-and that the party of
sportsmen that left from here were
pulled for violation of the law. This
was of course too good for Nick to keep
He was very much rejoiced, that L. M.
Nash and Phil Ward were pulled for
violation of the chicken law. He has

very truly says: every man who

THE SECRETARY EXPLAINS
why he Desires to Anticipate Ioterest
on the Public bonds

Secretary Fairchlld said yesterday after
noon, in explanation of his action offerinl
to anticipate interest on the public deb,
aud TO purchase bonds, that he did 1t simply
because be regarded It as the best thing
that could be done under the circumstances.
The purchase of bonds, he said, is for the
purpose OF providing for the sinking fund
and the anticipation of interest Is for tn
purpose of getting rid of the surplus.
The latter operation, he eaid, is only whal
any good business man would do to dis
count his obligations. The anticipation OF
interest is one of the two means given to
the Secretary of the Treasury for disposing
of the surplus funds, aud he regarded IT. A.
the cheapest and most advantageous. Tue
interest covered by the circular amounts to
500 3l9,IS4. II is impossible just nov t.
state the exact amount OF the rebate. The
sinking fund requirements will amount to
about $26, 900, 900 In addition to the b2O,-
100000 of per cent. bonds already applied.
The surplus, said Mr.. Fairchild, can be put
out only through the cooperation OF the
bondholdcrs, and, II they do not accept the
terms Of the proposition made to them, 1t
would seem that they are not in very great
need of money.
National Republican., 1887-08-04
Interest in Advance-Bonds to be Pur'
chased.

We print tbis morning the circular 'etter
Of the Secretary of the Treasury proposing
to anticipate the payment OF interest on
government bonds up to and including
January /, 1883. Notice is also given tina,
In pursuance Of the provisions Of section
1904 Of the Revised Statutes proposals for
the sale to the government Of the unital
States OF the A per cent. bonds OF the
United States Of 1891, acts of July II, 1870
and January 90, 1871, to be applied to the
sinking fund, will be received and opened
at the Office of the Secretary of the Treas
ury, in Washington, at noon on Wednes-
day, August 10, 1887, and on each Wednes-
day thereafter until further notice"
Secretary Farchild states, In reference
to this matter, that he did 1t simply because
he regarded 1t as the best thug that
could be done under the circumstances. In
closing, he says "thdt the surplus can be pm
out only through The cooperation Of The bond
holders, and if they do not accept the terms
Of the proposition made 10 them IL WOUR dp-
pear that they are not in very great need Of
money"
1t cannot be possible that President
Cleveland will permit his Secretary of the
Treasury to 20 into the market and pay
such or any premium upon government
bonds that Wall street may conspire TO
name. What, then, Is the object OF this
circular so far as 1t relates to the purchase
of bondsY We assume that the admins
tratlon has learned wisdom by the discus
siou Of this question In the NATIONAL RE-
4 La
therefore fully understands that II has the
power, under the present law, not only +,
call, pay, and redeem bonds at par out Of
the surplus In the treasury, but the add
tional power to refund and continue tho
bonds ut lower rate OF interest than now
paid.
Knowing this, but unwilling to ACCEPT
the responsibility of an act that would
cause the censure of the bondholiers, yet
not willing to be charged with failure 10
execute the laws, which, II executed, would
cancel the premium on bonds and save the
people, the taxpayers, hundreds of millions
Of dollars Of interest, this plan or method
has been adopted to relieve the executive
department of the government from just
responsibility by receiving the bids as pro-
posed, and then refusing to pay the pre-
mium. When this is done the country will
be Informed that the whole matter will be
laid before Congress for its consideration,
the administration having exhausted all
the lower conferred on It.
This subterfuge ana eyaslye policy viii
meet with just condemnation.
II, however, the theory presented Is the
wrong one, and the Secretary of the Treas.
ury makes purchase of bonds at a pre-,
MUM, he will do 1t in defiance Of law
against the interests of tho people, and
should be impeached as soon as Congress
meets.
Capt. Bunsby has again lost hls bearng'
when he exclalms, "If the bondholders dc
not accept the terms of the proposition
made to them 1t would appear that theJ
are not in very great need of money pl
"Where the carcass Is the vultures gather
Capt, Bunsby's mind seems to be on tho car
